I made it from scratch for years before realizing that the frozen dough at the store was just as good, or even better as it's been worked longer. Many pizza shops will also sell dough for a buck a ball.

Only reason I'd make it is to control the flours, a little rye adds a nice nutty flavor without the heavy texture of wheat.

Some dough, DOP tomatoes for sauce, decent cheese and they're probably 6-8 bucks each not including labor.
